Steps: Set Up Accounting for Negative Reimbursable Expense Reports

Steps: Set Up Accounting for Negative Reimbursable Expense Reports

  • Set up corporate credit card accounts.
  • Set up expense reports.
You can set up expense report accounting to:
  • Enable workers to submit expense reports with negative reimbursable amounts when they incur personal expenses on a corporate liability credit card.
  • Generate accounting for expense reports with negative reimbursable amounts and when a subsequent reimbursable expense report recovers the cost.
  1. Access the
    Create Corporate Credit Card Billing Account
    task
    Select
    Allow Negative Reimbursable Total
  2. If your company has worktag balancing enabled, you must enter a value in the required
    Default Worktag for Expense Payee Receivable
    prompt.
  3. Enter a value in the
    Default Optional Worktags for Expense Payee Receivable
    prompt.
  4. Access the
    Edit Company Expenses Options
    task.
    Select the
    Enable Accounting for Negative Reimbursable Expense Reports
    check box for your company.
    Security:
    Set Up: Company General
    domain in the Expenses functional area.
  5. Configure the
    Expense Payee Receivable
    account posting rule so that Workday sends the receivables to the account receivables account set.
When workers submit expense reports with negative reimbursable amounts, Workday applies the negative reimbursable amounts to future expense reports to recover the balance.
To recover worker reimbursable payments, access the
Create Expense Receivable Repayment
task. When you recover a payment, Workday generates the accounting, but you must manually enter the generated accounting journal entries.
